Mirador 10 of 15 · best: sunrise for the light

Cap Negre

A shaded cape of dark rock and pines, with fishermen's paths on the cliff and the entire coastline of Jávea to the north.

Also known as Mirador del Cap Negre

Cap Negre, the black cape, is the dark rock headland between the Portitxol and the Cap de la Nau. The mirador sits among pines at about 120 m, and old fishermen's paths, the pesqueres, still zig-zag down the cliff to ledges where men once fished with rod and line above the swell.

The view is the twin of La Falzia from a little further round the corner: the Illa del Portitxol, Cap Prim, the Cap de Sant Antoni and Montgó, and every cove in between. Because the cape faces north it holds shade in the afternoon, which makes it the right stop when the summer sun is high.
